Tell me something I don't know.

I would but then you would probably make the same remark regardless of whether its true or not.

Yes, you can use special characters like #@!$%^&*()_+ .

If people are dumb enough to even get keylogged in the first place then they deserve it.

Think I'm covered for a few lifetimes or so.

In a thread about account safety and security, no less.
I would actually find it quite amusing if they took the time to find out what exactly the password that I entered is associated with.

I used a old Password that I had about 6 months ago. I think I'm pretty safe if I continue to use my special password making method

Am I missing something or does that website just compute how long it would take to brute force the total number of combinations?
As in, how long it'd take to crack is based on length and not special character combinations or whatever.

How much it would take to bruteforce, yes.

It also checks with a list of the top 5000 or something most common passwords. The method seems to be 'Check on list' -> if not, bruteforce.

Has Nexon ever admitted to having a database leak?
I find it somewhat odd that there have been a large amount of hackings (in Scania, at least), and Nexon would put this up.

um...not.... not explicitly no.
I think the closest they came was with the MTS thing?
Gamer Safety Week: 2/10 - 2/14 - kayeyearekay - 2014-02-12
iirc, there were two large ones; the mts, and the dragon nest/maplestory crossover

Cool ;o Guess I don't have to worry ( I think)
It would take a desktop PC about Infinity years to crack your password."
